Amarillo High alum Clayton Cook gets the start on the mound tonight as the Mahoning Valley Scrappers (Class A affiliate of the Cleveland Indians) start the semifinal round of the New York-Penn League playoffs at Brooklyn. Cook went 5-3 this season with a 2.79 ERA in 67.2 innings with 64 Ks.

The Cotton Bowl gets a taste of the Lone Star Conference as Abilene Christian and Texas A&M-Commerce play at the famed stadium Saturday in the second Harvey Martin Classic.

From the Daily Oklahoman: This quip from OU offensive coordinator Kevin Wilson about the questions surrounding his new offensive line the day before the Sooners lost to BYU, 14-13: "Let's see, right now we've got two fifth-year guys and two fourth-year guys starting. That's not bad for this rookie line we got." OU's offensive line would have had a hard time stopping the front four of the Bonham Middle School 7th-Grade Silver Team. OU's offensive line had four false start penalties, one personal foul and two holding penalties. And as for the QB the line is supposed to protect? Most know how that turned out.
